Sweet Chief Secretary - Chapter 468
“Is your relationship with Zhou Yan very good?” Bai Hong asked tentatively.
“Not bad. What’s the matter?” Xia Yu asked.
“Great. Can you tell him to let me live here before I find a place to live?” Bai Hong thought about it. Although there were many houses of her own, as long as she lived in, someone would call her parents immediately.
It was even more impossible to stay in a hotel. She had to pay by card, and her parents would know it. After thinking for a long time, she believed that this was a safe place for her. But Zhou Yan came over early in the morning to see her and knew that she made his house messy like a pig’s nest. He was so angry that he nearly threw her out. He also asked Xia Yu to drive her away.
In view of what he had done before, Bai Hong knew that she was not welcome here.
“No problem! But you also need to pay attention to hygiene. You know that people who study medicine are most concerned about hygiene.” Xia Yu said with a smile.
Xia Yu went downstairs half an hour later. The sun appeared just now in the morning and disappeared at this moment. But the air was very stuffy. The air pressure was very low, and there was no wind at all.
Looking up, she just saw that Zhou Yan took a few food containers and ran to her. He was out of breath when he came to the front of her and sweated on his face. “Xia Yu, are you leaving?”
“I have to rush back to work.”
“What did she say?”
Xia Yu twisted her fingers again. “She still doesn’t want to go back, but she has already grown up. She has the right to choose!”
Zhou Yan didn’t know what to say. She had the right to choose, but what had that got to do with him?
Xia Yu smiled again. “Your grandfather is skeptical of you, isn’t he? He asked you to have a girlfriend, right? This is just your chance. Take good care of her and make a friend!”
As a result, Zhou Yan’s face blushed, and he raised his hand and scratched his head. “Xia Yu, what are you talking about? It’s OK to take care of her, but this girl has a bad temper, so I’m afraid that I can’t handle her myself.”
“Is there still someone who you can’t handle? You are Doctor Zhou.” Xia Yu couldn’t help laughing. He was gentle and careful, and he could coax any woman.
“Xia Yu, don’t make fun of me.” Zhou Yan now regretted getting her into his car last night. But Shen Mo was to blame. If he had not shouted and said that whoever dared to keep Bai Hong would be his enemy, he would have left.
In order to look at Shen Mo’s distorted face which was caused by anger, he got himself involved.
“If I tell you that Bai Hong and Jiang Tao’s affairs are plotted by Shen Mo, and the purpose is to defeat Shen Yan to get Shen Group, or if he really gets Shen Group, I guess that you will not be happy, right?” Xia Yu squinted her eyes and said.
“Those are plotted by Shen Mo?” Zhou Yan asked.
“Yes, and last night I exchanged something with Shen Yan about Ningjing…”
As soon as Xia Yu mentioned Ningjing, Zhou Yan immediately asked nervously, “What did he say?” Zhou Yan had talked with Shen Yan last time, but Shen Yan was very stubborn and thought it was nonsense. He was depressed until now.
“He told me that after you talked to him, he thought about it after he returned and thought it was not impossible. So, he asked me to tell you that when you were free, he wanted to talk to you.” Xia Yu said.
“I’ll be free anytime, and it depends on his time.” Zhou Yan was very excited. Shen Yan finally believed his words. With the help of Shen Yan, there was hope to prove Ningjing’s innocence.
“He also asked me to tell you that Li Tianci and Zhou Jiamin were complicated. Don’t stay too close to them. Especially, please tell them as fewer things about Ningjing as possible.” Xia Yu told him and said.
What a clever person Zhou Yan was! Zeng Ziqiang died suddenly, and Zeng Mina was still unconscious now. Saying that it had nothing to do with them was really unbelievable for Zhou Yan.
He should have less contact with such people. Zhou Yan nodded and said that he already knew.
Xia Yu took a taxi back to Ruyi Tower, and there was still extra time, so she ate some breakfast in the neighborhood incidentally. And on the way back on foot, she got a call from Jiang Grandma.
“Xia Yu, why have you remitted the money again? And this time you have remitted so much!” When she went to the bank to check her account, she was taken aback. Suddenly, there were more zeros on the passbook. She counted for a long time and thought it was her illusion.
Xia Yu couldn’t help laughing. “I have talked with Jiang Yayan. Jiangjiang and you both need money. I lent it to you. She said that she would pay me back when she came out!”
Xie Gendi was shocked over there, and she did not believe in paying back the money. How much money had Jiang Yayan borrowed from them? How could it be paid off? “Neither of us can spend so much.”
“Then save it for the child. He will need money in school in the future, right?” Xia Yu said with a smile.
“Xia Yu, is this money given by Mr. Shen?” If so, she would be even more embarrassed. Their family owed the favor of the Shen Family.
“It’s not given by him. Use it relievedly.”
After hanging up, Xia Yu returned to Ruyi Tower. But soon after entering, she received a call from the police officer of the detention center. Chen Wenxuan wanted to see her.
He wanted to see her. Did he still have the face to see her? If Kang Lan knew this, she wouldn’t fight with her again? Xia Yu looked at the phone for a long time before putting it down. At this time, the manager just came to Xia Yu to discuss something, so Xia Yu forgot about it.
But Chen Wenxuan was waiting for Xia Yu in the detention center stiffly. Now Xia Yu was his only hope. Whether he could go out or not depended on her.
Because Kang Lan came to the police station yesterday, accompanied by her father and lawyer, to ask Chen Wenxuan to sign the divorce letter and to agree with Kang Lan to abort the baby.
Chen Wenxuan was stunned at that time. If he really had signed it, it would not be so easy for him to go out, so he would not sign it anyway. But President Kang was unshakable in his determination to kick him away, and in the presence of his daughter, his words were absolutely decisive.
If Kang Lan dared to be intractable and still mingled with Chen Wenxuan, the troubles she had made as well as the life and death of the two people would have nothing to do with him in the future.
Kang Lan was discouraged immediately. She needed her father to take the money to handle a murder case here, and the owner and the victims of the restaurant in the arson case of her hometown were waiting for his father to get the money to deal with. Without the support of her father, she would be put into prison.
She had consulted a lawyer, and in her case, she would be sentenced to 10 or 8 years at least. When she came out of it, she was more than thirty years old, and Chen Wenxuan would be sentenced to only a few years at most. Without money, how could he follow her?
After thinking for a long time, Kang Lan advised Chen Wenxuan to sign the letter. Because if he refused to sign, her father would make his life worse than death.
Seeing that Kang Lan also gave up on him, Chen Wenxuan had to sign it. However, he begged Kang Lan to ask her father to plead and release himself for the sake of the mutual affection of their marriage.
Kang Lan shook her head. From the perspective of President Kang, Chen Wenxuan was the source of her daughter’s misfortune. That her father didn’t let the police take “extra” care of Chen Wenxuan was already for the sake of Kang Lan, so how could he save him and get him out?
But when they left, Kang Lan told Chen Wenxuan that Xia Yu was the only daughter of Ruyi Tower. If Xia Yu was willing to help him, he might have a chance.
After listening to Kang Lan’s words, Chen Wenxuan had mixed feelings. When he went to Xia Yu’s house and saw them live in such a large villa, he was also a little skeptical. After listening to the words of Xia Yu’s father, he did not ask Xia Yu carefully.
He was not to blame. He was young and didn’t think so much at that time. In addition, Xia Yu was very low-key in the school and worked as a tutor like other classmates. He did not expect that Xia Yu’s family was so rich.
If he had known it at that time, he believed that they would have a good future since he liked Xia Yu so much. He didn’t have to suffer so much. It was really a strange combination of circumstances.
After regretting it for a while in his mind, he felt that he could only ask Xia Yu to help him, so he asked the police to call Xia Yu. Unfortunately, Xia Yu forgot to come over.
After Xia Yu talked with the manager about something, she returned to her office to see the report for this month. There was a knock at the door, and Xia Yu said, “Please come in.”
The door was opened, and Xiao Tang stuck her head in with a smile on her face. “Xia Yu, how did you get to work in Ruyi Tower?”
“My father always wanted me to come back to work. Is there any problem with my return?” Xia Yu smiled and asked Xiao Tang to sit down to talk.
“Of course, there is. Xia Yu, please make up with Young Master Yan. Your reconciliation is a good thing for everyone in the company. You don’t know how indifferent and horrifying Young Master Yan was yesterday. I dared not talk to him. He walked by me, and I even didn’t dare to come out or breathe heavily. Also, I heard that the meeting was held yesterday, and Young Master Yan scolded all the senior leaders of our company. When those managers came out, I saw that their faces were all very pale.” Xiao Tang patted her chest while talking.
“Not so horrible!” Xia Yu imagined his terrible look. His somber face was almost like a demon, and his eyes were so fierce as if he would tear others up alive.
“Not so horrible but very horrible. I came here with the expectations of all the people of the company. You must immediately reconcile with Young Master Yan, and you must never quarrel with Young Master Yan again in the future. Please! Please!”
Xiao Tang even put her palms together devoutly and bowed to Xia Yu. Her movement was a little funny. Immediately, Xia Yu laughed out and grabbed her hand to prevent her from worshiping. “How can I promise you? There will always be troubles in our relationship.”
She frowned, with a bitter face. “This is also the case. Even if two people are in a good relationship, there are times of quarrel.” She paused after saying that. Then she laughed again and said, “But you and Young Master Yan have a very good relationship, there should be fewer times of quarrel. As for this case, everyone said that what Madame Zeng did was too inappropriate.”
“Madame Zeng?” Xia Yu froze. How did they know Madame Zeng?
“You know that Tengfei is not short of talents. You fought so fiercely with Young Master Yan. Someone has already inquired about everything. Everyone agrees that Madame Zeng bit the hand that fed her and was too ungrateful.” When Xiao Tang said this, there was contempt in her eyes.
“Forget it. Don’t mention her. Let’s talk about others. Do you miss me during my absence?” There were some things that people didn’t know. From the standpoint of Madame Zeng, she also wanted to maximize her benefit.
However, Xia Yu could only hide these things in her heart and could not talk about these things freely.
“Of course, all the people miss you very much.” Xiao Tang didn’t exaggerate at all. Although Xia Yu was very harsh when she was in the company, she did a lot of things.
When it was time, she would let everyone get off work, and she would work alone overtime and never haggle over this with everyone. But since she left, things had changed a lot. The one who replaced her left everything to everyone, and he was the first to leave work.
“I think that you just talked about it casually because I asked. If you really miss me, why haven’t you come to see me for so long?” Xia Yu pretended not to believe.
“To be frank, we really want to see you, but we do not have time!” Xiao Tang made a vow, and then she explained and said, “I’m here today because the company wants to entertain a customer and asked me to arrange it. Otherwise, I really have no time to come here and see you.”
